Lotus Elise Tyres
Lotus Elise is a lightweight sports car whose design emphasises exhilarating road driving. Elise's ideal tyres are a balance of wet driving safety, control, and good braking. With regard to construction, a compliment of tyres can show balance on uneven and rough roads. Thoughts on tyre selection can show balance between comfort and road noise.
There is no one-size-fits-all fitment for Lotus Elise tyres due to its multiple generations, model years, trims, engines and various factory wheel options. Whenever it is necessary to determine fitment for a Lotus Elise, the proper tyre size, load index and speed index can be found on its existing tyres, in its owner’s manual or its vehicle registration. Specified fitment is a tyre pre-requisite for comfort and prescribed safe driving.
On Tyres.co.uk, a Lotus Elise owner can browse and contrast tyres for their Lotus Elise in accordance to brand, price and performance, and book a local fitting in an effortless manner. Of utmost importance is the comparison of supplied fitment details prior to purchase to ensure the tyres are in accordance with wheel and vehicle requirements for a Lotus Elise.
Yokohama Advan Neova AD08RS
Tyre review for Yokohama Advan Neova AD08RS 225/40R18
Provides excellent grip, even on slippery surfaces.

Tyre review for Yokohama Advan Neova AD08RS 225/40R18
Improved handling and a smoother ride means excellent grip on dry roads.

Tyre review for Yokohama Advan Neova AD08RS 225/40R18
While I would recommend them, I would advise caution in the wet as they can skid. On the dry however, they are fantastic.

Tyre review for Yokohama Advan Neova AD08RS 225/40R18
I do not think these tyres perform well and am surprised at them being marketed as suitable for track days. There was little grip and at Brands Hatch the tyres squealed on a dry surface. I went to Snetterton today where the conditions were wet to dry and I almost decided to call it a day because the tyres were not worth it. I think they are only fit to be summer road tyres. I am really disappointed by them.

In dry conditions, perform brilliantly. When wet, proceed with caution.

Yokohama Advan Sport V105
Tyre review for Yokohama Advan Sport V105 235/40R19
I have used these tyres before as they were on the car when I purchased it, and they do their job as expected. That said, there are some cracks along the centre of the tread.

Tyre review for Yokohama Advan Sport V105 235/40R19
The supercharged Lotus Elise has these tyres. They were reliable at my most recent track day. They showed little to no fading and grip loss. A bit of graining at the end of the day meant that I had a great time! Even after 40 minutes of full power on the track, the tyres were consistent.

Tyre review for Yokohama Advan Sport V105 225/45R18
Had to change a tyre after just 12 weeks and less than 200 miles on the vehicle.

Having been on the car for a year, the tyres have performed excellently. They handle all braking and cornering manoeuvres with confidence as well as having reliable wet weather performance. They also assist in quite driving and help with fuel saving.

For Sport-option and S Cup fitments, you need Yokohama ADVAN A048 LTS in 195/50 R16 84W front and 225/45 R17 90W rear or in Toyo Proxes R888R in 195/50 ZR16 84W front and 225/45 ZR17 94W rear from Tyres.co.uk. Check the registration details carefully before placing an order.
Tyre and load information for the Lotus Elise is located on the driver's door jamb when the door is opened. You can also do this by looking at the tyre sidewalls and the Technical Data section of the owner's handbook. For factory front and rear specifications use the placard or the owner's handbook as different Elise models were made.
Unlike most other cars, replacing all four Lotus Elise tyres is not necessary, since almost every Elise model is rear wheel-drive. There is no four-wheel-drive drivetrain to consider. Replace tyres in pairs on each axle with the same size, type, and specification. In line with the UK's tyre safety recommendations, when replacing only two tyres, the new tyres should be fitted on the rear axle.
